Benihana Simulation Analysis Harvard Business Publishing has created a computer simulation to replicate the operations management decisions facing Benihana. Benihana is a teppanyaki style restaurant franchise that focuses on bringing a theatrical dinning experience to its patrons. The layout of the restaurant consists of two seating areas: the bar and the dining area. The goal of this simulation is to maximize utilization‚ throughput time and the nightly profit using different batching‚ bar sizing

COMPUTER- AIDED DECISIONS “COMPUTER SIMULATION OF HUMAN THOUGHT” What is Computer Simulation? A computer simulation or a computer model is a computer program that attempts to simulate an abstract model of a particular system. Computer simulations have become a useful part of mathematical modeling of many natural systems in physics‚ chemistry and biology‚ human systems in economics‚ psychology‚ and social science and in the process of engineering new technology‚ to gain insight into

What have you learned Business simulation is simulation used for business training or analysis. Most business simulations are used for business acumen training and development. Learning objectives include: strategic thinking‚ financial analysis‚ market analysis‚ operations‚ teamwork and leadership. The business gaming community seems lately to have adopted the term business simulation game instead of just gaming or just simulation. The word simulation is sometimes considered too mechanistic

Bottling Process Improvement Analyzing Failures with Simulation Alvaro A. González Reinaldo J. Moraga Francisco J. Ramis Department of Industrial Engineering Universidad del Bío-Bío Concepción‚ Chile ABSTRACT In this paper the impact of the idle times is analyzed due to failures in a bottling process line by using simulation techniques. In the case study of this paper‚ all the failures are produced by fallen bottle in several points throughout the conveyor line. One way to overcome

In our Business Connections class‚ we used a simulation called “Biz Café”. This simulation activity took place in groups of three or four over the span of the semester. The simulation was a coffee house that the group made decisions on. Every week the group makes decisions regarding what should happen at the coffee house‚ i.e. hire/firing employees‚ wages‚ insurance‚ marketing‚ etc. Three days later the results of these decisions are posted and the group sees the results of the decisions they made
